Description

This modification adds basic Twitter integration to vBulletin. Once a user defines their Twitter username & password within their vB Options (User CP -> Edit Options), the Tweet This X links will appear.

It automatically adds a tweet to their account with the default text of "Check this out! " (which can be edited editing the "twitter_checkout" phrase) and uses your forum URL with either tp or tt.php as the link. These redirect to the thread / post that was tweeted.

Installation
  1. Upload files in the /upload/ folder of the .zip into the directories as is.
  2. Install product file.
  3. Register an OAuth Application here, using:
  4. Click Install on vB.org
  5. Tell Your users.
  6. Enjoy
Upgrading to v1.0.4
  • Upload all files, overwrite everything.
  • Install product file.
  • Register an OAuth Application here, using:
  • Gain and copy the Consumer Key & Secret into vBulletin Options.
Upgrading to v1.0.3 or before.
  • Upload all files, overwrite everything.
  • install product file.
  • Remove template edits. For the record, they are here:
    • Open the postbit or postbit_legacy template (depending on what you use). Find:
      HTML Code:
      <if condition="$show['postcount']">#<a href="showpost.php?$session[sessionurl]p=$post[postid]&amp;postcount=$post[postcount]" target="new" rel="nofollow" id="postcount$post[postid]" name="$post[postcount]"><strong>$post[postcount]</strong></a></if>
      Add before that:
      HTML Code:
      <if condition="$post['twitter_username']"><a href="tweet.php?do=post&amp;id=$post[postid]&amp;c=$post[postid]">Tweet this post!</a></if>
    • Open the SHOWTHREAD template.
      Find:
      HTML Code:
      	<if condition="$show['addpoll']">
      	<tr>

      	</tr>
      	</if>
      Add After:
      HTML Code:
      	<if condition="$vbulletin->userinfo['twitter_username']">
      	<tr>
      		<td class="vbmenu_option">
      			<a href="tweet.php?do=thread&ampid=$threadinfo[threadid]">Tweet This  Thread!</a>
      		</td>
      	</tr>
      	</if>
      Find:
      HTML Code:
      		<if condition="!$show['search_engine']">
      
      			<div><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/printer.gif" alt="$vbphrase[show_printable_version]" vspace="1" /> <a href="printthread.php?$session[sessionurl]t=$threadid" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[show_printable_version]</a></div>
      			<div><img class="inlineimg" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/sendtofriend.gif" alt="$vbphrase[email_this_page]" vspace="1" /> <a href="sendmessage.php?$session[sessionurl]do=sendtofriend&amp;t=$threadid" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[email_this_page]</a></div>
      		</if>
      Add After:
      HTML Code:
      		<if condition="$vbulletin->userinfo['twitter_username']"><a href="tweet.php?do=thread&amp;id=$threadinfo[threadid]">Tweet This  Thread!</a></if>
Requirements

THIS MODIFICATION REQUIRES PHP 5 DUE TO THE CLASS THAT IS USED!

PHP'S CURL EXTENSION IS ALSO USED! THE API CALLS ARE COMPLETELY DEPENDENT ON THEM!


This modification should work on vBulletin v3.5+, but was only tested on a vB 3.8 install.

Using the "tp.php" switch added in v1.0.2

With the release of v1.0.2, a switch between showpost.php?p=ID&postcount=COUNT and showthread.php?p=ID#postID has been added. Using it is simple, but requires a code edit (Note: This is a SUPPORTED code edit!). Open up tp.php and find this line:

PHP Code:
define('SHOWPOST'true); 
Change that line to this:

PHP Code:
define('SHOWPOST'false); 

This will automatically trigger the change any time it is loaded. This works retroactively and any links will automatically use the new settings once changed!

Same, I did a completely new installation (never used the modification before) following the instructions. But there is no place in the Edit Options for a user to put their username/password for twitter and when I click the authorize link, twitter doesn't seem to recognise that a user has been added because in the twitter/application settings it still shows "0 users".

I will attempt a new install soon, since the process must have changed at some point.

Did you go to User CP->Edit Options->Scroll down to vbTwitter????? It should take you to twitter.


In my case it all works except when Tweeting a post.

Ok, something happened today ! I logged onto Twitter and my account had a message saying "I have successfully set up my account to work with vbtwitter at one of the sites that I visit - this message means that it was successful".

And sure enough, when I selected to tweet a thread it appeared on my twitter page. So everything seems ok after all, except that while I can tweet a thread I can't tweet an individual post.
